Robert Hutton (1784-1870), was the eldest son of John Hutton, founder of the well known Dublin firm of coach builders. He left the running of the firm to his younger brother Thomas and became M.P. for Dublin from 1837 to 1841 ("Dictionary of Irish Biography"). He later lived at Putney Park, Surrey, married Caroline Crompton of Liverpool and had a son Albert who married Georgina Finlay of Corville, county Cavan, in 1872. Robert Hutton purchased parts of the county Cavan estates of William Young in 1850, (he was the petitioner for this sale) and of Francis Hassard of Tircahan Lodge, also known as Rockwood, Swanlinbar, in 1852. In 1855 he leased the lodge to Henry Breen which led to a dispute recorded in The Irish Law Times Reports, Volume VII (8 February 1873). At the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1856) Robert Hutton held land in the county Cavan parishes of Templeport, Kinawley, Killashandra, Ballintemple, Mullagh and Drumlumman. In the 1870s his widow Caroline Hutton of Putney Park owned 1,806 acres in the county, while Albert and Stanford Hutton of Killashandra and Putney Park owned a further 925 acres in county Cavan and 1,608 acres in county Longford. Albert Hutton lived at Drummully House, Killashandra in the 1870s. Albert Hutton of Rockwood died in 1887.
At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s Robert Hutton was the lessor of property in the parish of Columbkille, barony of Granard, County Longford. In the 1870s, Albert Hutton, with an address at Killeshandra, County Cavan and Stanford Hutton, with an address in London, were the owners of over 1600 acres in County Longford. In 1874 Stamford Hutton and Ralph Wheeler Lingen, trustees of the will of the late Robert Hutton offered for sale almost 3000 acres of Cavan and Longford estates in the Landed Estates Court.

The Youngs were living at Lahard, parish of Killashandra, county Cavan, from the early 18th century. Mathew Young of Lahard married Frances daughter of William Nesbitt of Dromaler, county Cavan. They had a daughter Abigail who married the Reverend John Beatty and a son James Young, High Sheriff of county Cavan in 1767.

They had two daughters co heiresses who married Bishop Mackarness and the Reverend H. Meynell. The representatives of Cosby Young held three townlands in the parish of Killashandra and one townland in the parish of Drumlumman in the mid-19th century. A Cosby Young of Lahard who died in 18[9]6, aged 44, is buried in Killashandra Old Graveyard, as is Lucy Alice Young who died in 1910. Another Young memorial in this graveyard was erected by William Young of Gartinardress. In 1876, William Young of Gartinardress owned 593 acres and Miss Lucy Young of Killashandra owned 289 acres in county Cavan. At the same time the Reverend George R. Markarness owned 1,370 acres, the Reverend Henry Meynell of Macclesfield, England, owned 451 acres in the county while a Mrs Anna Sophia Young of Philpotstown, Navan, owned 672 acres and a Miss Young of Sandymount, county Dublin, owned 882 acres in county Cavan. Gartinardress is located very close to Lahard. In 1850 William Young, his wife Mary Clemina and daughter Margaret, sold the 2,604 county Cavan estate of Richard Young 'deceased' in the Encumbered Estates Court with 796 acres in county Longford. The county Cavan estate was very scattered, being located in six different parishes. Robert Hutton was the petitioner and the subsequent proprietor.
